Working with mixed media stitched textiles gives me great pleasure. As well as the joy in the art of making and exploring, there are the friendships formed as work grows.

Workshop on the Web
I subscribe to Maggie Grey's Workshop on the Web and recommend it most highly.
It's published quarterly exclusively on the internet. In each edition there are workshops provided by well-known tutors from all around the world - and available at any time so there is no pressure to complete a workshop on a given day or before a time deadline.
The techniques covered include machine embroidery, hand stitching, and a wide range of mixed media and there are opportunities to explore the use of metals and the latest developments in our field. There are step-by-step details for the techniques and ideas are given for using them creatively ... all a great deal for £20 ...!
From the current edition which was published in June, I have every intention of trying Sherrill Kahn's workshop on Thermofax printing - something I've been wanting to try for ages.
And ... there's a special offer! If you join now, there's a promotion - you'll receive Lynda Monk's and Carol McFee's book 'Stitching the Textured Surface' free - wherever you live in the world. I've got it and it's a really interesting book.
If you're still not sure about this idea, you can investigate the website via the link above and you can even try a free taster to see whether it is for you or not.
I really hope you decide to join..!
